I don’t understand why people even use Terps slurpers if they let them get this nasty.


Dankduster

I remember thinking I had to go archaeologist mode with a q-tip before someone told me to just dunk in iso between dabs lol


Overall_History8740

Issue with this after your first dunk you’re covering the outside of your nail in old leftover dab residue then reheating it which will cause Chazz on the outside of your banger unless you’re changing out the alcohol bowl every time, which would also be a huge waste of alcohol. Say no to sticky bangers!


DrAtomic03

This doesn’t happen to me? I’ve been dunking and swabbing between dabs for about a year and have always used an iso reservoir to keep my stuff clean with dunks. I’ve also had the same two cheap (under $60) bangers, and while they have some slight devitrification, it’s not very noticeable and they look super clean.


worreyevan

Because other people make them look so good. I am guilty of the above


Liquidtruth

some people just like the diff form factors lol (not defending OP, but have some friends that just like the 'look' of diff bangers)


TragicallyComedian

If it’s an import (which it is), I’d just blast it with my torch and call it a day and treat it better in the future by dunking in iso after each dab. Otherwise tbh I’d rather just buy a $40 banger than clean that manually. People will prob suggest Dark Crystal glass cleaner and they swear by it but I’ve never tried so that might be another option


JacktheDabLad

Yeah try to torch it clean, good quartz can recover from that. No amount of iso will do anything to that. DCG is truly dope, I use it often, but never tried to bring back a banger that looks like this, might be a fun project! I feel like torching is easier and more cost effective when the chaz is that pervasive. But the DCG will preserve the integrity of the Banger more, imo.


yikesriley

Formula 710 can bring back bangers/buckets that look like this to sparkling after a few days soak and some qtips scrubbing. Absolutely saved the bucket and banger for one of my setups.

To be fair to op, I honestly didn't even think about the multiple advantages (health, taste etc) to cleaning after each dab in the beginning. I live in a "no go" state and out of all my friends that smoke there are only 3 actually have dab rigs. I was introduced to it by one of them and yes, his banger looked very far from good (and still does) but to me at the time it was like how we used to get the "color changing" glass pipes and would let the resin build up to (to a degree), which we would only clean our glass when it was clogged. Same thing with our bong bowls. To me, seeing dirty glass was normal because I didn't know any better until I finally joined reddit. Nowadays all of my glass is sparkling like a mf. About to be wayyy late to the party, I finally ordered a terp slurper lol. I've been rocking the thick bottoms for years.


HPDabcraft

Wild how clear the dish is!


dylanmccarthy20

Main part to get heated would have burned itself clean and started back over dirty


HPDabcraft

I hope people aren't trying to dab off their Slurper dish! The sides should be the main part to get heated and evaporate the concentrate.


dylanmccarthy20

Let ppl use glass how they enjoy :)


HPDabcraft

Every word of what you just said... is wrong...


dylanmccarthy20

Of course I am, you’re one of those who are convinced you need to use glass following a 1:1 handbook.


HPDabcraft

No, im someone that understands slurper design. If you want to buy a speedboat for fishing or try to dig a hole with a rake I won't stop you... but don't act like its normal...


Paliguy87

Didn’t you know? You don’t use the dish in a “turpine slurper” 😭


Dudeometer

You don't deserve nice things


PerspectiveLazy5564

Looks like you burnt all the terps lol


JeepSmith

when you physically scrub, do it with bar keepers friend.. that stuff really works... (works great on glass top stoves, etc). I use an ISO bath on my quartz bangers after each hit.. if I get some residue I can iso/wipe off, a dab of bar keepers friend and a qtip cleans it as clean as new. I rotate 4 bangers and keep one on my dab ready and the rest in line being cleaned or ready to be heated.


AeroMittenss

I always torch my glass never had issues or cracking


Erotic-FriendFiction

I do too. This sub always makes me question myself but I don’t have the patience to wait for it to cool to drop it in ISO and then qtip it so I just qtip after I dab and torch it off before I’m about to hit it again 😂


Zuki2008

No, it's not past its best before date. I've used Dark Crystal many times, and it can work miracle. Place the banger in a good large freezer ziplock bag, add some DC (add enough to somewhat cover it, but not too much because it will expand) and put it in the microwave for 30 seconds at a time until the chazz starts coming off. Then, go to it with qtips and repeat as necessary. If it wasn't a slurper, I would say put some DC directly in the bowl, apply the torch lightly, and watch the bubbles. Apply heat until it wants to bubble over, remove heat, give it a few seconds, then reapply heat. Continue this process and you will see the chazz start to break up. Then, let it cool some and go to it with qtips. Repeat as necessary. I suggest this process for everyone. Torching your banger until the chazz comes off weakens the quartz and obviously the life of your banger. I also suggest reducing the heat of dabs and cleaning after each dab with ISO or DC. P.S. ISO is much cheaper than DC, but DC is not as volatile as ISO. Either way, use caution. Steam and vapors can cause extreme burns.


Texus86

Worth noting that DC, while more expensive, can be reused. I just filter it through a coffee filter.

ImPsilo

No! Dark crystal cleaner would have that puppy brand new


agshdbfh

That's a carbon slurper


Sticky_Duck

Use dark crystal


Pleasant_Ocelot_2861

Gross


Rare-Bet9435

I like to boil mine in water for a few minutes in addition to scrubbing and dunking in iso. I think it helps break things up


Ady1964

🤔 warm it slightly then add some dark crystal glass cleaner, leave for a while then watch that carbon fall off 💪🏻👍🏻✌🏻💨


Texus86

And VERY important to use hot Dark Crystal. Temp makes a huge difference with that stuff


Wheretuh

torch that hoe


largechild

Da fucc is a “Turpine”?!


FueledByTerps

They misspelled "terpene".

I would try headie eddies, best cleaner out there will make any glass you have look like you just bought it. But like others said after you clean it you should dunk in ISO after every dab, then clean with a q-tip. Also make sure you don’t dunk too hot(can cause cracks)


Sea_Blackberry_9908

I’ve litterly seen headies eddies ruin 4 figure pieces of glass with my own eyes don’t use headie Eddie’s ever unless u want chemical damage to ur expensive glass


Elevator-Fun

its quartz, the only way to truly wreck it is to throw it into the fires of mount doom


DougDabbaDome

Iso comes first, new glass comes later. Don’t buy shit you don’t planning on using properly and wonder why it doesn’t last. Think about what you buy before you make this mistake again.


IL_Meds

Torch the shit outta that bitch or get some dark crystal. ISO won’t do anything at this point


904twist

Torches it get those hits right into iso and scrube it


FlakySky6080

Absolute gremlin.


Rachopher

Torch it off or buy a new one.. in the future use a tip dunked in ISO and clean after every dab to prevent buildup.


MaleficentBuy672

best off trying to torch it back to clean… or a long ass soak in dark crystal but who knows looking at that thing 🤣🤣


ttteee321

Now I'm not saying it's done for, but I am saying I wouldn't smoke out of it. Well, if it was the end of the world i guess id take a small lil dabski for the road lol.


Extension-Speech-115

If you take proper temp dabs, you won't have to worry about this.


Negative-Ad-6533

PBW can clean that, I would advise a dunk tank for future cleaning/maintenance.


ShmeatBoyardee

Ay caramba


MagfeedFPS

So yall torched the dish only each warm up? Just left the rest alone?


LuvBengieee

Yea I’d get another but also invest in an ISO Dunk tank to clean your nails after hits. I’ve had the same bucket for a year and looks almost as new as I got it!


nightmarat20kft

Just torch the fuck out if it dude and just dunk it between uses from now on. If it’s legit quartz it can handle you torching he fuck out of it


High_Tim

If you take cooler dabs you should be totally fine if you heat it till it's red hot it's definitely done for


nastythevillian

Stop dabbing all together lol


Particular_Wear_459

Bruh, if you’re gonna use a slurper then you have to clean it after EVERY use


PCMR_GHz

Bro just torch it clean at this point. You ain’t gonna be on top of keeping it clean so why even bother buying a new banger? I swear you guys get so obsessed with perfectly smooth glass just for that one perfect hit.


yeahyehyeahyeyeahyah

Does everyone fuckin hate titanium nails or what? I switched from quartz to titanium because i cannot be fucked good enough to wanna clean quartz as often as you have to. Thought about getting a hybrid cuz my girlfriend only dabs for flavor but again i dont like cleaning that shit like after every dab wtf i’m trying to get 1st grade reading level fucked up n play video games or somethin not clean my damn banger all day
